This next segment features as a guest on the national program in Canada, George Stronbolopolous Tonight. It aired in early 2012 when Wabwas promoting the Eight Fire series. From which we've shared some other material with you during this course. In his time on the program, Wab talks about the relationship between Canadians and indigenous people. And also the policies of the nation-state of Canada. And one of the stories that comes out during the interview is a story that Wab filed as a journalist. With the CBC in the Province of Manitoba when Wab was covering residential schools and their impact. And he told the story of his father and what happened to his father in residential schools. But he brought his own son on camera to show this was the age of my father when he was in those schools. And it really helped, I think, to personalize and dramatize the kind of atrocities that were enacted upon these young children. It's a good transition I think, this interview, for ending the week two material. Which looks at the relationships between Canadians and indigenous people. And it transitions us into the week three material. Which looks at aboriginal education in Canada and how it's developed over time. So please enjoy this clip of Wab on George Stroumboulopoulos.
